| | WHC Radiology Receives Prestigious Accreditation |
| | 
Waverly Health Center recently received a three year term of accreditation in Computed Tomography (CT) as the result of a recent survey by the American College of Radiology (ACR).
The ACR, headquartered in Reston, Virginia, awards accreditation to facilities for the achievement of high practice standards after a peer-review evaluation of the practice. Evaluations are conducted by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field. They assess the qualifications of the personnel and the adequacy of facility equipment. The surveyors report their findings to the ACR’s Committee on Accreditation, which subsequently provides the practice with a comprehensive report.
The ACR accreditation demonstrates a commitment to quality patient care to both patients and referring physicians. Waverly Health Center is only the third hospital in the state of Iowa to receive the accreditation.
“The ACR accreditation validates our dedication to excellence,” said Waverly Health Center radiological technologist Emily Schut. “The accreditation shows that we have top of the line equipment that we are utilizing in a way that honors national standards.”
The ACR is a national organization serving more than 32,000 diagnostic and interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists, and nuclear medicine and medical physicists with programs focusing on the practice of medical imaging and radiation oncology and the delivery of comprehensive health care services.
